Mitre, Table & Flip Saws

Learn more about mitre saws

It’s important to choose the correct bench saw configuration when you need to achieve clean joints and maintain fast output. Sliding compound mitre saws extend the cutting head along twin rails, allowing you to cut wide timber boards, fascia, and structural joists in a single pass. Flip saws (or combination saws) combine the cross-cutting accuracy of a compound mitre saw with the long-ripping capability of a bench table saw, offering an all-in-one solution for compact site vans.

You’ll find mitre saws for angle cuts, bevel cuts and accurate cross cuts in timber and other building materials. If you need more cutting width or more angle flexibility, compare compound mitre saw, sliding mitre saw and dual compound mitre saw options against the job in hand and the product specifications.

Typical uses

• Cutting skirting, architraves, coving and other mouldings.

• Making angle cuts and mitre cutting on timber and similar materials.

• Working on picture frame mitre saw cuts and other repeat finishing cuts.

• Choosing a mitre saw for worktop mitre saw cuts where cut capacity matters.

• Using mitre saw blades suited to the material, whether that is softwood, hardwood or sheet material.

How to choose the right mitre saw

• Compare a compound mitre saw, sliding mitre saw and dual compound mitre saw when you need more flexibility.

• Check the cut capacity, especially for wider stock and finishing work.

• Match the blade size to the saw and the material you are cutting.

• Check mitre gauge compatibility and the product specifications before you order.

• If you are comparing saws for a specific job, filter by cut capacity and blade size, then compare the product specifications.
